Sans Faceted Abbab 8 is a bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Ft Thyson' by Fateh.Lab, 'Brave Brigade' by Invasi Studio, 'Nulato' by Stefan Stoychev, and 'Manifest' by Yasin Yalcin (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, heavy display sans built from straight strokes and hard chamfered corners, with curves consistently replaced by faceted, octagonal-like segments. Stems are uniform in thickness and terminals tend to be flat, creating a crisp, machined silhouette. Counters are relatively tight and often polygonal, with squared-off interior shapes in forms like O/0/8; diagonals (A/V/W/X/Y) are sturdy and clean, and the overall rhythm reads dense and stable. Lowercase follows the same geometric logic with simplified bowls and sharp joins, keeping a consistent, block-constructed texture across text.
Best used at medium to large sizes where the angular detailing and compact, blocky silhouettes can read clearly. It works well for headlines, branding marks, sports and team applications, product packaging, and signage-style typography where a rugged, engineered aesthetic is desired.
The faceted construction and dense weight give the font a tough, engineered tone that feels sporty and industrial. Its sharp corners and compact spacing project a no-nonsense, high-impact voice suited to labels, equipment markings, and bold messaging with a retro-technical edge.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric, machine-cut look into a practical display alphabet, using consistent chamfers to replace curves and create a unified faceted system. It aims for strong impact and quick recognition through simplified, high-contrast silhouettes and tightly controlled counters.
Numerals are especially sign-like, with the 0 rendered as a boxed form and the 8 using stacked polygonal counters, reinforcing a stencil/scoreboard-adjacent impression without breaking the uniform, planar style. The design maintains clear differentiation between similar shapes through notches, chamfers, and squared apertures, prioritizing strong silhouettes over softness.
